I'm cautiously optimistic about this one!
Production is currently underway in Budapest, Hungary. Probably at ORIGO Studios [The Martian (2015), Blade Runner 2049 (2017), Dune (2021), Etc...].
Fede Álvarez seams like a great choice, just form listening to interviews with him speaking about film, lighting, color, horror, etc... I feel like he understands what made the first Alien film Great. And the fact that he pitched this story to Ridley Scott in an elevator. I can only hope this will be a “back to basics” film, I hope the story is good, I hope they take their TIME to develop the characters and plot. I really hope it looks closer to the first film as far as production design and costuming .
What seems to be audition tapes were leaked/discovered on Vimeo, reported by avpgalexy.net, two of the tapes were taken down within a few hours, make of that what you will. Although these are just audition tapes, the scenes are most probably not taken for the script. But I think they do give us a FEEL as to the scripts direction and mood. The Perfect Organism Podcast have a good take on this:
It's no secret that I'm obsessed with the first film on so many levels, especially the costume design. So I really do hope we are going to see some of that original costume look in this new instalment. And if I'm reading the clues right, this might be what we’re going to get!
What do you guys think?
